‘Doug bugs’ ready for handwriting on Monday.

Jumping on the Lockwood and Co bandwagon. What an amazing series!

Any other teachers feeling completely exhausted? Unable to motivate your legs to move exhausted? So many things on the ‘to do’ list and no time ‘to do’ them?

I’m looking to compile a list of recent new (ish) releases to create a wish list of books to add to our library. For ages 7-11. Top of the list is #Tyger by SF Said Need inspiration from the Twitterverse! #reading #readingrocks #fiction #primary

Is it just me or are the first 2 reports like the first two pancakes. Ok but a bit soggy and not hitting the spot?

I am running my Whole Class Reading training on Zoom on Saturday the 24th at 10am. It's usually just under two hours long and will include class novel sessions, wider curriculum delivery, planning, questioning etc. Retweets much appreciated. eventbrite.com/e/whole-class-…

Experiencing a crisis at the moment. Just sat here reading #tyger and stumbled upon this passage. Cue a moment of realisation and calm. It will be ok. Thank you SF Said. A truly magnificent read so far #tears

Superb. Mesmerising. Stunning. Emotive. Thought-provoking. A masterpiece. Spectacular. Just a few words to describe #tyger SF Said Need to read this to my class next year. #tyger #primary #reading #year5 #year6

Finally got to reading this awesome treat. Love everything about it! What a fantastic bunch of characters you have created Jennifer Killick and can’t wait to read their next adventure! #craterlake #kidlit #reading #readingrocks

Enjoyed this one @KirtleySophie a lovely dip into history with a heartwarming undertone. Thank you. This would be fab for a Stone Age topic reader. #makesafe #stoneage #reading #readingforpleasure

Devoured in a morning Matt Goodfellow’s The Final Year… a masterpiece in verse. This book has to be on every teachers bookshelf and shared widely. Emotive, heart wrenching, genius. #ivegotsomethinginmyeye #poetry #year5 #year6 #readingrocks

You need to read this book. Inspiring. Beautiful. Heartwarming and full of love. I was lucky enough to be in the audience last night. So. Much. Love. ❤️
